What happened after Man v. Food?
Roli Roti Gourmet Rotisserie was a local-flavor stop in Man v. Food's San Francisco episode (Travel Channel, host Casey Webb, aired 2019-11-26), which built its central challenge around a 49-ounce porterhouse steak at a separate steakhouse in the same episode, according to Wikipedia's episode list for the series; the Roli Roti segment instead featured the truck's rotisserie porchetta sandwich. Founded in 2001 by Swiss-trained butcher Thomas Odermatt, Roli Roti describes itself on its own site, roliroti.com, as America's first gourmet rotisserie food truck, built around herb-infused, free-range rotisserie chicken and hand-rolled porchetta. Roli Roti continues to list a recurring stall at the San Francisco Ferry Building on roliroti.com's event calendar, including a dated Ferry Building appearance scheduled for October 22, 2026. A Yelp listing for the Ferry Building location, at 1 Ferry Building, shows reviews updated in September 2026.
